A comment about the broken playpark gate was posted on the website last week. This was forwarded to the GMCC and Penny Short has contacted East Lothian Council (Landscape and Countryside department). They have ordered a new spring to replace the broken one and will install it as soon as it is delivered. In the meantime, please take extra care if you are supervising young children at the park.

Playpark Painting
Dear All
Looking for volunteers to help spruce up the playpark at 5.00pm on Saturday the 3rd of August.
We will need brushes, power sanders, long flex (to reach Hazel’s house) etc, so if you’ve got those all the better. Also, if there are any professional painters in the village, expert advice would be much appreciated.
Let me know if you are interested in helping on 01620 830 307 (or using form below).
Please spread the word – the more people that come along, the quicker the job!
All the best

Missing cat
Kerry and Stevie are missing a cat…
He is jet black and goes by the name of Bingley. He was last seen on Wednesday and is not a permanent resident of the village so may have wandered off into unknown territory and got lost. If you see him or know where he is, please call us on 830276 or pop in and see us at Ballyrogan.
Many thanks,
Kerry and Stevie

Anyone lost a Samsung mobile phone?
One was found yesterday evening on the road up to Nunraw. Alas, it isn’t in a great state. But I guess the SIM will be recoverable. Drop us a line if you want to claim it. Otherwise, we’ll notify the police.
